  • Medieval Beauty Standards
    Apr 16 2025
    folks, we have once again stumbled upon some hilariously-insane social media posts and have decided to relate them back to the Middle Ages. the main gist is this: a twitter user posted about how the Catholic Virgin Mary was an unaging smokeshow and objectively the most beautiful woman to ever live as compared to that ugly hag Protestant Virgin Mary, who is apparently a totally separate individual. She then decided to do some clarifications and here we are. since this view is quite similar to that of typical European Medieval beauty standards, we decided to make fun of these posts and then talk about why Medieval people were so weird and contradictory like this.

  • Medieval Women Anna Komnene and Julian of Norwich
    Apr 11 2025
    folks, we're back with another installment of our occasional Medieval women series where we look back at two influential women from the Middle Ages. today, we look at two who couldn't be more different in most respects: the Byzantine princess and historian, Anna Komnene, and the English anchoress, mystic, and visionary, Julian of Norwich. we talk about what made each of them influential and how they made their marks in male-dominated fields of history, politics, and religion. check it out!

this is very well researched. And thank you and keep up the great work. i can't believe you are doing this for free. Appreciate it.
I am mostly focused on African History after the 16th and this is new to me. I have learned much about it. i am still going through the podcast but so far so good. My rating is a 5
